Our Team

Matt Burton

Chief Executive Officer

With over twenty years tech experience, Matt launched Techquity in Autumn 2017 with his business partner, Richard Bendelow. He wanted to create a team of technology business consultants to design and develop bespoke software applications.

Formerly Chief Technology Officer at Visualsoft, Matt designed and developed the ecommerce platform, now in its 3rd generation. The platform supported almost 1,000 online retailers ranging from independent sellers to multi-chain stores and internationally-known brands. Over twelve years he directed a team of over 100 across design and development, R&D, client support, hosting and testing in offices in Teesside, Newcastle, Manchester, London and Dubai.

Before this, Matt developed web applications for a host of leading national organisations including BP, the NHS and the JobCentre among others.

Now as CEO of Techquity, Matt is responsible for determining the strategic direction and growth of the company. Under his leadership, a team of advanced tech consultants deliver outstanding projects for a range of online and app based businesses.

My Projects.

Vectis Auctions

We overhauled the existing UX and UI to enhance the fundamental functionality of the site before developing an online marketplace, which enables dealers around the world to engage directly with buyers and sell their goods via a secure ecommerce platform.

Coursebox

A bespoke web application was designed and developed for this online learning marketplace. The most valuable asset we created was the unique data management process ensuring all data was owned by the business and unable to be replicated.

Whats About Town

This web and mobile application had failed to launch after three years and significant investment. We found it unfit for purpose and took on the role of CTO, transforming the technical proposition. Within five months the platform was live.

Tyre Savings

We devised and developed a website comprising an online ordering system linked to an extensive back office and network of thousands of tyre fitters. The platform will now be white labelled for large multinational retailers and ecommerce functionality integrated into the build.
